Winners Bracket
Minnesota took out 16 contestants with their dramatic last minute win over Southern Cal. The Gophers went for it on fourth and goal from the 1 yard line and appeared to be stopped, but a video review overturned the call on the field giving Minnesota a 7 point lead that they would not relinquish.
Also in Week 6 there was 1 elimination for not picking and 1 other contender got relegated to the Losers Bracket for incorrectly picking Rutgers to beat Nebraska.
Here’s the distribution of the remaining picks that earned advancement this week:

20/39 remaining participants (listed below in green) have made their extra pick for weeks 6-10 and will only need/be allowed to make one pick a week through the end of week 10.
19 entrants (listed below in white) still need to make an extra pick at some time over the course of the next four weeks.
As a reminder, you may pick against a team a maximum of three times. If a teams abbreviation appears once or twice, you have picked against them once or twice respectively. When you have picked against a team for a third time that team will appear spelled out, bolded, and italicized. This will indicate that you may then no longer pick against that team.

Losers Bracket
5 contestants were eligible in Week 6. There were 2 non pick eliminations and 17 relegations from the winners bracket.
There was 1 correct pick of Northwestern losing to Indiana, 1 correct prediction that Michigan State would fall to Oregon and 2 correct selections of Iowa losing to Ohio State.
14/20 participants (listed below in green) have made their extra pick for weeks 6-10 and will only need/be allowed to make one pick a week through the end of week 10.
6 entrants (listed below in white) still need to make an extra pick at some time over the course of the next four weeks.
As a reminder, you may pick against/have a team win for you a maximum of three times. Any team you successfully picked in the Winners’ pool counts as one bullet used (you may pick against them only 2 more times). Teams you picked against in the Winners bracket are not counted in the Losers bracket picks against. When you have picked against a team for a third time that team will appear spelled out, bolded, and italicized. This will indicate that you may then no longer pick against that team.
Here are the 20 contenders that are eligible, along with their (prior picks) as well as [B1G teams you have picked against] *both alphabetically:
